Mt. Rainier: New Snow Keeps Climbers from the Summit

May 13, 2017

Posted by: Ben Liken, Paul Rachele

Categories: Expedition Dispatches Mount Rainier

Elevation: 11,350'

The Mt. Rainier Summit Climb, led by RMI Guides Ben Liken and Paul Rachele, turned just above Ingraham Flats this morning. A storm during the night dropped one to two feet of snow at Ingraham Flats, which also caused a high avalanche danger on the upper mountain. The teams are safely off the mountain and enjoying some time here at Rainier Basecamp with their teammates.
